Police shut down illegal quarry in Trinidad, arrested 19, including company owner, over unlicensed mining damaging environment.
On October 9, 2025, Trinidad and Tobago police dismantled a large illegal quarrying operation in Manuel Congo, Guanapo, arresting 19 people including the alleged owner of a construction company linked to the site.
The operation, which had operated without a license despite prior shutdowns, used heavy machinery, caused deep excavations up to 60 feet, and damaged forests and rivers, threatening water supplies.
Authorities described it as part of a year-long effort to dismantle criminal networks profiting from illegal mining, with seized materials potentially used in national construction projects.
